steve, take it away. >> sure. well, as we all know, the president has been facing a pretty stiff economic headwind. what i want to do is lay out how his economic situation compares to indicators to those of other people who have run for president recently. you'll see interesting results in terms of how the economy's performed. one measure people often look at is real gdp which is how much has the economy grown. so for each of these presidents we start with the beginning of their first term, and then we progress ourselves out to their re-election point. and what you can see not surprisingly, because we talk a lot about the weak economy, is that by this measure, obama is really pretty much at the bottom of the pack. and the other four presidents that have preceded him all had substantially better performance when it comes to plain economic growth. now, economic growth alone is not a recipe for re-election, as you can see, because bush 41 did not get re-elected, and jimmy carter, of course, did not get re-elected. >>

and let's start with steve ratner. steve has written an op-ed in "the new york times," and the title is "the radical is romney, not ryan." "president obama should use tuesday night's debate to press mr. romney to defend -- or even just explain -- these proposed cuts, which would be far more draconian than those advanced by his running mate, paul ryan. mr. ryan is widely viewed as the real fiscal hawk, but in key areas, his views on spending levels are actually closer to mr. obama's than to mr. romney's. with respect to nearly half the budget, mr. romney and mr. ryan widely diverge from each other. mr. romney is calling for a huge increase in defense spending, roughly $2 trillion more over the next decade than ryan wants to spend which is only $400 billion above mr. obama's budget. even though the military is not asking for such an increase. such an increase would force giant reductions, about 40%, in everything that's left. and katty kay, with libya on the front pages and sort of this growing scandal over security ther
